Your Login May Be Exposed: FreeOLDCloud Leak Hit 20,943 Accounts

In June 2024, HEROIC analysts identified a stealer log file circulating on Telegram, labeled "FreeOLDCloud" and uploaded by a Telegram user. The file contained 20,943 records including endpoints, email addresses, API hosts, and plaintext passwords pulled directly from infected devices.

Why the FreeOLDCloud Stealer Leak Is Dangerous

Stealer logs are captured directly from an infected computer, which means the passwords in this file were current and working at the moment they were stolen. Every credential sits in plaintext and is paired with the exact website it unlocked, giving an attacker a ready-made login rather than data that needs to be cracked.

What Was Exposed

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords
• Associated URLs

Why This Matters

With 20,943 records in this log, the odds that your credentials are included are real. If your data is in this file, an attacker already has a working username and password, along with the site to use it on, making account takeover fast and straightforward. From there, the same tactics fuel identity theft and financial fraud, especially if the stolen login was tied to email or banking access.

How Stealer Logs Like FreeOLDCloud Get Made

Stealer log malware infects a device, often through a fake download, cracked software, or a phishing link, then quietly collects saved browser passwords, autofill data, and active login sessions before sending everything back to the attacker. The label "free" is often used to advertise a sample of a larger collection, encouraging buyers on Telegram to purchase access to more.

Check If Your Data Is in the FreeOLDCloud Leak

If you want to know whether your email address appears in this stealer log or any other leaked dataset, HEROIC's free breach scanner checks your information against a database of more than 400 billion leaked records. It takes seconds to check, and if you find a match, changing that password everywhere you used it is the fastest way to shut the door on attackers.
